GalCiv 2 UE Custom Ship Crashes Game

So I spent most of yesterday designing some new ships and had zero issues. Now I try to upgrade the designs today and the game crashes. I haven't even started a game yet so no idea why this is happening. HELP!! Debug file contents is below. Thanks in advance!

UPDATE: Noticed something and I'll assume it's related because I have three designs that don't crash but the ones that do crash are not showing any stats, no Hit Points, Cost, Maintenance, etc. I didn't do anything different with those designs that I didn't do with the others but there you go.

UPDATE 2: Problem solved!!! I'll leave this up in case it can be of help in the future. Seems I had a mod loaded that added custom names for the hull designations. I recalled there being two sets of tiny hull sets to choose from but didn't think anything of it at the time. Well apparently I built the designs that would crash under those custom hull designators. When I tried to upgrade the designs, I had turned the mod off, which meant GalCiv couldn't find the hulls for the designs and crashed. I manually updated the xml files for the ship designs to look for the standard hulls and viola! Ah the joys of bug swatting, the process is infuriating but the end result is most gratifying :D
